    Mad Max: Fury Road (2015)

    I'm sure someone's already recommended it, but you should try the Malazan series then. That the author doesn't explain much except through organic conversation is what a lot of people hate about it. I wouldn't call them terrible(Sword of Truth series gets that descriptor), but I can't disagree...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Almost every barb build uses FC with cooldown reduction rune to trigger FnR. It works to your benefit in this case because the lost DR is mitigated by the minor knockup it causes(which does trigger Strongarms). Any lost damage is trumped by maintaining a 1.5x multiplier for the next 5 seconds...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Meh, wastes is still competitive with the Rend hybrid, someone did 72 just a couple days ago. The problem is that both are boring as fuck. I also find both are bit too map selective. Fishing is required no matter the class and spec, but barb melee builds just don't have the toughness to stick...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Fix that armor cube at the very least. Don't know much else about wizards otherwise. Firebirds seems quite out of favor atm. Why are you still using Unforgiving? The amount of fury it provides compared to BK2 and Weapon Master is quite small. CoTA is a wasted slot. It's sucking down Zodiac...

    It was actually delivered today. FedEx tracking said it took less than 2 hours to get from Hong Kong to Memphis. Violations of physics aside, we'll see if the wife likes it or not. I would consider her a "casual" user.

    What do you do?

    Of course, the threat is implied, not direct. I agree with your other point though. Traffic disproportionately pisses me off, so I've generally stayed away from large cities. I just can't stomach wasting 1-2 hours a day in your car. But it also means "then you find a new job" has a higher...

    What do you do?

    I agree with your points. I sometimes wish there were more professional unions. And I say that perhaps naively because I've never worked a job that had one. But, I would like there to be a better way for a worker to leverage what they are due(whatever that is) besides the threat of leaving.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I think there's an ICD on the explosions. Back when proc-based gear was BiS, that amulet was awesome for melee builds because it didn't have an ICD.

    What do you do?

    Just curious, and perhaps to play a little bit of devil's advocate, why is 4% a shitty raise? At a lot of places, you will get much less or none, especially if they employ that retarded curving scheme. What do you feel you are deserved each year? Sometimes I feel 4-5% is a good amount and...

    You might want to pester them. I ordered my wife's on the 9th and it shipped out today, due for delivery on Monday.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Good point, something that completely slipped my mind. I'm probably the odd one out in that I'll look at porn without actually "finishing", with the assumption that the wife wants to do something later. Works out a little less than half the time.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    But what will I think of when banging my wife? I'm not saying you're wrong, but I wondering there is perhaps correlation vs causation going on here. One my favorite things is to just basically fart around on my computer. Which consists of looking at porn, listening to music, watching...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I'm wondering what they have in store for the leapquake set in 2.4. Melee-based builds seem at an inherent disadvantage, only able to compete with ranged builds on certain maps. I'd really like to give IK/SS a try but FoTVP and IK4 is a negative interaction, while GoJ interacts quite well with...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    It might go down relative to other classes. Now that you can't CC everything forever, the value of glass cannon dps has gone down. Also, the amount of group healing and buffs other classes bring with respect to damage taken matters more. Unrelated: I'm running into problems on my monk...

    Might work. I'd worry about missing out on killing speed without IK6 or Wastes6.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    You could probably cube it, I haven't played Crusader since the patch, so I haven't memorized cubing options for them. How do you get speed + Sage's on a barb? I can't seem to fit it in. Maybe for rifts. For bounties, I don't find the elites dense enough for In-Geom to be up most of the time.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Crusaders can get 100% Steed with 50% CDR, swiftmount, Lord Commander passive, and 3s rune. The annoying part is having to change your weapon to kill anything. At this point, I think it's really only Monks and maybe DH that have it noticeably worse at Bounty and Key farming. Everyone else...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Assuming you're ok with keeping main stat, you don't care about the other secondary, that means 2/3(2 primaries and the passive) have to roll correctly and you reroll the 3rd. Bored at work, so that would be: 1/14 for the first primary affix to be correct Passive chance varies class by...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Suiciding until the amulet broke allowed you to equip a different one(with a different passive) while still keeping the previous passive.

    Zodiac for perma WoTB is a better compromise than having to wear 3-5 pieces of IK and a RoRG. Also, don't know how many times I have to post this, Mighty Weapon + BK2 is all the rage you'll need.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    My bad, sorry for misinterpreting your intent. So as to not to completely waste this tangent, is this a common way to code? I see wasteful instantiated objects and it just annoys me to no end, even if the instantiation is comparatively minor.

    Who cares about the relative cost, why write lazy code? It doesn't even save you any LoC.

    I'm talking about the cost of 2 instantiations versus 1 for the same exists().

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    That seems a bad way to do it, performance wise, since you'd have to instantiate another object to do anything with the file. Or is there some Java way to reference that object within the if() scope?

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    That's a pretty shit roll for CoE. I guess if you're fully using the primary affixes on zodiac. Rend rune should be bloodbath, it's the only worthwhile one. And yes, Bloodshed for Battle Rage.
